i hadnt even seen them fighting... and there was more than enough space for 2 in the cage so its not like they were fighting for space lol

Hammible The one remaining one seems quite happy on his own (the other 3 died!), but I wont be sad when he goes. He doesn't even have a name!! I'm planning to skin him, get his little pelt cured and sell it as a little rug for a dolls house, just like a tiger skin rug, but with a hamster. Head and all!!

lol i thought it was quiet a fitting name

neaither of them had names before because i couldnt tell them apart they were just "hammie" lol

he enjoys trying to eat me as well! lol if i put my hand in cage he is like "omnomnomnom mummys finger" luckily it doesnt hurt because he is so small hehe he bites so hard his back feet lift off the floor

in follow up, after writing that message i realised i hadnt heard him all morning... just tapped the cage and nothing =/ gonna have to start digging not looking good!

I would go for a small family of roborovski's, 3-4 in there, related same sex, or different sex unrelated. One of the more funner hamsters in my opinion. At one point i had 8 tanks full of different familys Roborovski mannor

You could also have mice, as stated earlier.. harvest mice? Pair of degu maybe?

I was just reading through your posts and have a question. My girlfriend has two robrovski's (brothers). And she wanted me to ask if this always occours?

i have heard of it happening to alot of people, they were the 1st robos i had and were fine for a year or so then out of nowhere it happened. however as you probally read there are people on here who have had them living together their whole lives and nothing happened. personally i would say the best you can do is keep a close eye out for fights or seperate them to be safe, im sure there are other who will post and give their opinions too
